Just a short update. I'm sorry for my two previous posts. Well, not really, but they were rather moody. If you should know, I tend to get like that at times. That's just how I process, I guess. But I feel a lot better this week, for real! :) A lot has been happening, but I'll make a whole post about my first few weeks in college this weekend. :)

que sera, sera
I've been quite "busy" I suppose, spending time with friends, with family, and by myself. Also, I've been busy with college enrollment and other requirements. It's been quite a surreal and fun experience. Finally, I've seen our campus and felt it around a bit. After all, UP Manila will be my home for the next four years (when all goes well of course, I'm sure it'll be hard work). Oh, and I've met my blockmates! I honestly feel like I'm lucky to be blockmates with a group of seemingly friendly and humorous people! :D We're slowly becoming a family. :))
Anyway, I'm glad I'm starting to get a bit busy already. At first, I was kind of overwhelmed by the whole idea of finally entering college. I started to get paranoid, thinking "how in the world will I do this?" and "how the hell will I fit in?". That went on for two days until I just finally told myself to chill the eff out and just do it. Now, I'm extremely excited to enter college! Still a tad bit nervous of course, but I'm feeling positive vibes.
I guess I might post a number of posts for the rest of the week so I can properly relate what I've been up to. Some music posts, nail art posts ('cause I'm not over it yet), and probably a whole post about how AWESOME and EPIC BBC's Sherlock TV series is. I'm still having a hangover from it's epic-ness after finishing seasons 1 and 2. If you've watched it and loved it, then you probably know what I'm feeling now. If you haven't, give it a shot! You don't even have to read the original stories (although it would make it even better if you did) as it is a contemporary adaptation.

"Whatever will be, will be"
Oh how I missed blogging! If it isn't obvious, I've been on a bit of a break, haven't I?

The best art comes from an emotion deeper than what happiness can bring.

"If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all."
- Oscar Wilde
The beauty of art and of literature really has a way of
capturing me.When I see a beautiful image, a work of art that moves me, it’s
almost as if my heart would break. It seems dramatic, yes, but it is true for
every piece of art that touches my heart. I can’t explain it to the utmost
point of how it makes me feel, the desire to know every inch of that piece of
art, to see the story within it. It almost feels like love, seeing something so
moving.
There have only been a few stories that have really
gotten through to my core. Something deeper than just fancy words and
descriptions. Though I do admit that these pull me into a story, nothing pulls
me in better than really knowing the character, feeling the story. I love
stories that make me think, that make me wonder “Why?” These are the stories
that leave me speechless and silently begging for more. Even if I’ve gone
through these stories numerous times, I want nothing more than to do it all
over again, to try and feel more than just the pages within my fingertips.
One would
think it almost obsessive. One can only be obsessed with something they can’t
get enough of. And it is true; I can never seem to get enough of the beauty of
art, of literature, and even of human nature, because truly, these all pique my
interest. I thirst for knowledge on it all, the curious nature of which they
come about to entrance us. What is it about these things that make my mind tick
and my heart race; that make me curiouser and curiouser?
